Read our privacy policy Andy Murray’s uncle and brother have questioned why the two-time Wimbledon champion is not on an official poster of past and present greats. Under the banner “here’s to the next generation of headline acts”, young duo Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz – neither of whom have made an impact at the Championships yet – stand in the foreground. You should be ashamed of yourselves.” And Jamie Murray, who has been competing along with his brother at the cinch Championships this week, replied to Wimbledon’s Instagram post with “Where’s @andymurray?” He added: “Didn’t they talk about the big 4 for 10 years until he smashed his hip to pieces when he was world No 1?” Illustrator Grant Gruenhaupt responded by saying more paintings are planned. Meanwhile, Jamie Murray and partner Michael Venus lost their first-round doubles match at Queen’s Club against Matthew Hebden and Rohan Bopanna in two tie-breaks.
